Chapter 65 〔* ̄3〕〔ε ̄*〕
The fact that Jing Guiren was promoted to Concubine Chen is more or less a warning, not everyone can have such an honor to be blessed by Qi Yao.
Qiaoqiao made pastries from the dining room, put them on the table, and helped her to sit down.
"Niangniang, you are not as good as before, you don't have to hide all day long." Qiaoqiao said.
"The lights are out, I'm scared ......" Yuan Jing sat down slowly and sighed softly.
"Niangniang, if I don't send someone to inform the emperor, if you have the emperor with you, you must not be afraid." Qiaoqiao said.
"No, go and light the lamp." Yuan Jing commanded.
She watched Qiaoqiao light the lamp, and then slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, it was not dark enough to light the lamp, but Yuan Jing has always had a problem, she likes to light the lamp, and light it during the day.
So she always keeps the door closed and hardly goes out, which is why she goes so unnoticed.
"I only see my dad when the lights are on." Yuan Jing said.
Qiaoqiao stiffened and said, "Then do you see it now?" ”
"Nope." Yuan Jing said.
Qiaoqiao quietly breathed a sigh of relief, cautiously retreated, and went to invite Qi Yao......
When night fell, Ziluan Palace couldn't wait for the emperor's arrival, but it got another news.
Qi Yao accompanied Concubine Chen to dine in Mingxi Palace.
The others carefully served Wen Rao, for fear that she would lose her temper, but she was very calm, eating and washing alone, sitting in front of the dressing table and slowly drying her hair.
"Rong Xia, clean up the bath and prepare clean water again." Wen Rao said.
"But, didn't the mother take a bath?" Rong Xia said.
"It's not me, the emperor will use it later." Wen Rao said.
Rong Xia was stunned, she clearly remembered that the emperor was there in Yuan Jing, but Wen Rao said this, she went down silently to prepare, but just as she was ready, the emperor came, he didn't say a word, raised his feet and walked in the direction of the bath, she became more and more convinced of Wen Rao in her heart.
looked at Wen Rao again, but there was no expression on her face.
She took off her head, and then sat on the bed, quietly waiting for Qi Yao.
She can be indifferent, but Qi Yao can't be like her, he climbed out of the pool and sat on the edge of the pool, feeling a little bored in his heart.
He thought that Wen Rao was still waiting for him, so he casually wiped the water on his body and walked to the bathroom.
Wen Rao is still the same Wen Rao, but there is an extra dragon heir in his belly, which makes him naturally prefer her more.
"How are you feeling today?" Qi Yao stretched out his hand and hugged her and asked.
"I'm going to give tea to the Queen Mother." Wen Rao said.
"She's sick." Qi Yao said.
"Hmm." Wen Rao didn't mention Yuan Jing, only played with his fingers gently.
"The Queen Mother doesn't like me."
Qi Yao could expect it.
"You don't have to go to her." He said.
"I want to please her." Wen Rao said.
Qi Yao hesitated for a moment and said, "You will be wronged like this." ”
Wen Rao just smiled when she heard this, who made her wronged, did he really think she was stupid?
Qi Yao touched her hair, "It's almost dry." ”
Wen Rao nodded, took off the clothes she was wearing and hung them on the shelf, loosened the clothes belt before turning around, and then went to bed slowly.
As soon as Qi Yao lowered her head, she saw her supple appearance, she would never cause trouble, but there was always a group of people who couldn't tolerate her.
"You ......," he said just one word, and he was slightly distracted to see the snow peeking out of her loose collar.
He reached out and ripped open the hem of her dress.
"Is this a burn?" Qi Yao is not stupid, she has been to the Queen Mother and that's it, someone must have bullied her.
Wen Rao lowered her head and said, "It was Wan'er who was careless." ”
Yang Yuwan really deserves to hate Wen Rao.
Qi Yao didn't speak, but only hugged her in his arms.
She had his children, and they bullied her like this, and she was even more sad when she didn't have children.
He used to think in his heart that she would never fall in love with him, this qiē was what she deserved, as long as she lived, she would hold a breath and put it in front of her to talk about comfort.
But she knew how to respond, and the closer he got, the more unbearable he became.
He wanted to tell her all the secrets, but he didn't dare, just like a strange woman like Yuan Jing, he would rather let her misunderstand than dare to tell her.
"I will make the Queen Mother like me." Her eyes were cold, silent pools.
"You don't need to please them, I won't hurt you." He cupped her face, earnest and focused.
"You said so." Wen Rao said, "What has been said is enough once, if it is true, then it is even better." ”
Qi Yao's body stiffened, slowly let go of his hand, and looked at her coldly.
"Someone." Qi Yao suddenly shouted.
He rarely asks people to serve Wen Rao, and such orders are a bit rare.
A few people who came in from outside lowered their heads, not daring to look around.
"Change my clothes." His face was extremely ugly, and he put on his clothes and hurried away.
Wen Rao was lying on the bed alone, as if she was holding on to the child in her belly, and she didn't even want to get up to see him off.
Overnight, the status of the two people in the palace changed subtly.
Yuan Jing is the person who gives face to the emperor, and Wen Rao is the person who provokes the emperor to rest and leave angrily.
The man who can't keep the child in her belly, and her person can't keep it.
Happy people are there.
It's just that what makes people's jaws fall is that Wen Rao actually took the initiative to add two people to Qi Yao's harem, and what is even more unexpected is that these two people are Wen Wan and Yang Yuwan.
The Queen Mother was very satisfied, and her attitude towards her eased a lot.
Qi Yao only sneered when he heard the news.
She used to be clever to herself, but she never came to him.
The two people who were promoted, he only went to sit with Wen Wan, and he always treated Yang Yuwan coldly, compared with the two, Yang Yuwan's face became more and more unbearable, and Wen Wan was also flattered.
There was always someone in the cold palace who was almost forgotten, until Wen Wan took the initiative to find her.
"Sister, I really succeeded, you really didn't lie to me." Wen Wan appeared here, and saw that Wen Ru's side face was becoming more and more cold, and even the former immortal qi was extinguished, and there were joys and sorrows in her heart.
"You are my sister, only we can depend on each other, if I don't help you, who else can I help?" Wen Ru lowered her eyes, and there was desolation in her eyes.
"Sister, I know that I was wrong in the past, I was always jealous of you, and I didn't want you to be good, but now it's just the two of us, if I still target you, I am really not as good as a beast, sister, our common enemy now is Wen Rao, no matter what the outcome is, if I succeed, I will definitely intercede for my sister on the emperor again, if the emperor is ruthless, I will also serve my sister for life." Wen Wanqing said sincerely.
She said this somewhat sincerely, and the other part was also to make Wen Ru believe her.
"I know, otherwise, how dare I hand over the witchcraft to you." Wen Ru sighed.
"Then what should I do next, the emperor is tired of Wen Rao." Wen Wan said.
Tired, what a naïve ...... Wen Ru thought about it, and said without showing it on her face: "Next, you are going to destroy the doll that wrote Wen Rao's birthday." ”
When Wen Wan heard this, she was not in a hurry, she hid this thing like a hot potato, if it could be destroyed, it would naturally be better, if Wen Ru kept instigating her to do this, she would suspect that Wen Rao's intentions were not pure.
"Okay, I'll go back and destroy it." Wen Wan said.
"Wait......" Wen Ru hurriedly grabbed her and said, "It's not so simple to destroy Miè, otherwise why do you think the witchcraft can't be used in vain?" ”
"That'...... Why? Wen Wan said quietly.
"Because ......" Wen Ru glanced at her, seemed to be hesitating, and finally said, "Do you remember Liang Xuan?" In the past, I instructed Yingxiu to hand over the things to Liang Xuan, and I also asked her to do it, but she didn't know how to stop in time, so she ......"
"That's why she died so badly." Wen Wan's face suddenly turned pale, but she believed in Wen Ru's honesty a little.
"That's right." Wen Ru said.
"So what should I do?" Wen Wan asked hurriedly.
"Go to the river, and when you're done, sweep the ashes straight into the water." Wen Ru said.
"Is that simple?" Wen Wan breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hmm." Wen Ru nodded and closed her eyes a little tiredly.
Wen Wan thought for a moment and felt that this matter could not be delayed.
In the middle of the night, Wen Wan got up while everyone was asleep, and took out a doll made of white cloth from under the bed.
She hurriedly took her things into her arms and walked out the door.
At this time, no one should come out to walk, and even if there is, no one can see anyone.
She couldn't see her fingers, and she didn't even dare to light a candle.
She followed the route she had written down during the day and walked smoothly to the river.
She took out the doll, sighed slightly in her heart, and stabbed a few stitches in the stomach of "Wen Rao" with some reluctance, and even pricked her fingers, staining blood.
It's great, maybe with blood, it will be more effective. Thinking like this, she pricked the last needle on the top of Wen Rao's head, penetrating its head, revealing a hideous smile. She didn't burn it for a long time, and repeatedly kneaded and played with it, eager to tear the doll apart with her own hands.
"Didn't you say you were going to burn it in time? Why don't you listen to me? Suddenly a voice came from behind her, but she didn't even know who this person was, so she pushed her hard, although she couldn't see it, but she knew that there was a river in front of her, although she couldn't see it, but she heard the woman's last words.
"You can't live brighter than me, you know?"
As the sky grew brighter, no one passed by the river, until noon, when there were more people walking back and forth, and the palace people who were idle and lazy would find a stone next to the river to sit down and breathe, and tell interesting stories, and then some people had sharp eyes and saw floating corpses on the water.
A human homicide case can be a trivial matter in the palace, but it must be given an explanation and a reasonable explanation, so that people will not blame her on ghosts and gods.
Someone found a doll by the river, and the eight characters behind it turned out to be Wen Rao's eight characters, and then the doll was disassembled, and Wen Rao's name was inside.
For those who investigate, as long as they grasp this point and shirk their responsibilities, they can easily end it, but that person is the queen, so they can no longer be perfunctory at will.
According to the usual practice, they reported to Qi Yao in advance, and then went to Ziluan Palace for questioning.
